Our Huber Advanced Materials business for years has been a proud partner sponsor of IWCS - The Cable & Connectivity Industry Forum. We are excited to team up again in early December as Thomas Schelling presents an insightful technical webinar focusing on fire retardants and how they function to protect and save lives. Please register at the link below and join us! #IWCS2024 #firesafety #technicalknowhow #BetterTogether
Join IWCS on Tuesday, December 3 to learn about the development and testing of low smoke PVC and LSZH wire & cable compounds using cone calorimetry. Thomas Schelling, Technology Manager for Wire & Cable, Huber Engineered Materials, will present a technical study that uncovers significant differences in heat release rates (HRR) despite similar Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI) values, especially between PVC and LSZH materials. We'll also examine the effectiveness of various flame-retardant additives, their impact on smoke generation, and discuss the limitations of LOI as a predictor of flame spread. Don’t miss this chance to gain a deeper understanding of advanced fire safety testing methods and their implications for material performance!
